This Hindi movie is a pretty straightforward slice-of-life story that tries to give a modern look at what it's like to be a single, professional gay man. It dives into how he understands who he is, the chances he missed out on, and the personal choices he’s made along the way. The director used three parallel timelines to tell the story, which honestly didn't make much sense to me. While the core idea was actually pretty interesting, I really feel like this would have worked way better as a short film considering the point it was trying to make. Still, it wasn't a bad watch. The plot centers on Rachit, a city professional, and his friend Shikhar as they hang out for an evening. Rachit is a polished, urban guy, while Shikhar has more of a "small-town" rustic vibe, and you can really see the contrast between them when they talk. As the night goes on, Rachit starts thinking back to some old memories from a long time ago. He remembers being an intern after college in ...
Honestly, this six-episode series was a total slog. Each episode is nearly an hour long, but there’s absolutely nothing new here. The plot is about as basic as it gets, there’s zero drama to keep things interesting, and everything just drags on forever. I kept wondering what the point even was—like, why bother making a series if you have nothing to say? It felt like the creators didn't care about telling a story at all and just wanted to focus on "cute" couple moments.
The story is about Meen, a guy who lives a pretty quiet, boring life on his own. He finds a stray dog in his backyard and decides to keep it, but his peace and quiet get wrecked when his mom sends Tul, her friend’s son, to live with him in Chiang Mai. Meen is super protective of his new dog and hates the idea of a roommate, so he tries everything he can to kick Tul out. Of course, he eventually realizes that Tul loves the dog just as much as he does. Tul has this clingy, puppy-dog personality that eventually melts Meen’s heart and gets it beating for the first time. At the same time, we've got a side story with another couple in their friend group who are also dog lovers. They meet by chance and fall in love pretty fast. There was a little bit of potential to make that side plot meaningful, but it just ended up being as boring as the main one.
Both of these romances are incredibly bland, and I didn't feel any chemistry between the leads at all. It’s hard to blame the actors entirely because the script and direction are so weak that the characters feel totally one-dimensional. Even the kisses and more intimate scenes felt forced and just... off. The pacing was painfully slow, the characters were dull, and there was no weight to the story. Honestly, the only scenes I actually liked were the ones with the dog, probably because I’ve been watching way too many dog videos lately. Other than the cute pup, there’s really nothing worth mentioning. It’s a complete waste of time.
It’s an incredibly boring and empty show that lacks any real heart or spark, making it one you should definitely skip. (2/10)
